With dark twists and humorous turns, Boojum! blends the much-loved tale of Alice in Wonderland with Lewis Carroll’s nonsensical poem The Hunting of the Snark.
Boojum! provides an imagined insight into the writer and the sensational world he created, transporting you into his psyche as he grapples with dual identities: the Reverend Charles Dodgson, and his pen name Lewis Carroll, the beloved children’s author.
Sitting somewhere between opera and musical comedy, Boojum! will be performed as part of our VO Emerges program.
